About
On April 29, 2027, the Karine Carnage company presents L'École at Le Grand Parquet, an open rehearsal exploring the transformation of individuals into police officers. This performance investigates the physical and psychological impact of training, covering everything from weaponry to conflict management and victim assistance. Through a rigorous examination of authority, the piece highlights how a unified collective body is constructed within the national police force. This free event, suitable for audiences aged 12 and over, takes place in the Jardins d'Eole, providing a rare glimpse into the troupe's current artistic research and development process within the 18th arrondissement.
What happened during their training period? What effect does it have on the bodies to embody order and security? Throughout their training – learning authority, handling weapons, managing violence, or receiving victims – the fabrication of a collective body emerges: that of the national police.
